This test fails over and over again every time we update the library or because of small changes elsewhere. This leads to a cycle of test failures and us bumping the values again. This test has little value so I propose to just get rid of it.

Fixes GH-13795.

I'm generally somewhat concerned about dropping bug fix tests, due to https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=36365#1571126095 (I had not added a test originally because it's slow, but the bug got re-introduced, and wasn't found in time, so a couple of minor PHP versions had the bug). However, in this case it appears to be about an upstream bug for which the fix had been back-ported quite a while ago, so regression testing should be done upstream. Thus, I'm fine with dropping the test.
